Adaptive sleeping boosts networking performance by a huge amount.
System performance improved by 5x-10x.
This is because small gaps in send thread and in thread timing would have created long
sleep cycles in the past. Now sleep length grows with time. So during lots of network activity,
there is little to no sleep, and during quiet times, the sleep is actually longer overall.
This should also improve battery usage.

README.md

Fire★ is a simple distributed, decentralized communication
and computation platform.

You don't send a message to someone, you send software, which
can have rich content. All programs are wired up together automatically
providing distributed communication, either through text, images, videos,
or games.

The source code to all applications is available immediately to
instantly clone and modify.

WARNING

The software is in development. The security of the software has
not been audited so use AT YOUR OWN RISK.

If you are a security expert, please contribute.

Organization

This is the reference implementation of the protocol. It uses QT for
the GUI and a custom message back-end. Currently the applications
are written in Lua, but other bindings will be provided in the future.

The main directory is src. Each subdirectory is a library and
the main application is in src/firestr
